The Washington House Museum & Visitor Center — Attraction in Two Rivers

If you’re around Two Rivers, WI you should take the time to stop in and check out the Washington House. Definitely a very cool historic building.

They do have very limited hours, so make sure you check and see if they are open before you go. It’s worth your time to check it out and eat some ice cream at the end. The ice cream is very good but make sure you have cash with you to buy it.
